In this week's episode of Giant Pot of Whatever, Jack had 2lbs of white rice, shredded meat from a turkey he'd cooked awhile ago and frozen, and some onions. I'd considered just doing the usual rice-and-whatever, but didn't have all the cans of vegetables I'd normally use...
I did, however, have two packages of taco seasoning, a can of diced tomatoes, two small cans of tomato sauce and at least one can of dark red kidney beans (which I'd normally never eat), so I got a couple of green peppers and chopped them up to throw in as well.
Does that sort of count as "red beans and rice"? lol
Vague attempt at "Spanglish Rice" was moderately successful...
It's a little bit dry, could have benefitted from more sauce/diced maters, but the two packages of taco seasoning gave it just enough of that spicy flavor without actually any of the burning sensation and indigestion that generally accompanies it, lol.
